Re: luftwaffe runway amd approach lights
Obstruction and perimeter lighting, permanent runway lighting, beam approach system and a visual Lorenz system.
All of the above on the permanent airdromes in the Reich, Denmark, Holland, Belgium and France that hosted NJG units. L. |

Re: luftwaffe runway amd approach lights
Thanks for that. Any more details/specifications/colours? Also what about runway end and beginning lights? I am specifically interested in Deelen and Venlo at the moment, but basically all NJG bases.

Re: luftwaffe runway amd approach lights
There are some Deelen and Venlo specialists among the members here and I am sure one or more of them has more details for you.

Re: luftwaffe runway amd approach lights
Thanks for that SES. Is that on gyges? I can't make out the lettering on the approach paths; do you know what it is? Was Lorenz type approach on that field?

Re: luftwaffe runway amd approach lights
I have some information on Venlo lighting in http://fliegerhorstvenlo.webklik.nl/page/documentatie
so I am imagining Deelen would be somewhat similar? |
